What it pairs with

  • Braised lamb shoulder
    Medium tannin and body give the wine enough grip to match a slow-braised cut.
  • Duck breast with cherry jus
    Pinot Noir's classic affinity with duck and stone fruit sauces holds here.
  • Aged Gruyere
    A nutty hard cheese meets the wine's oak-derived structure without overwhelming the fruit.

History
